Beyond
Skin Deep
A Weekend
Workshop Dedicated to Exploring, Reclaiming and Celebrating One's
Inherent Beauty and the Beauty of the World.
Our modern culture defines beauty so narrowly -- and then relentlessly
promotes and reinforces that definition so vigorously, that beauty
can seem out of most people's dominion. Beauty is a birthright --
an experience of intense engagement in life available to all of us.
We can claim beauty consciously, widening its domain and activating
its transformative power in us and around us. In this workshop, we
will use the concepts of Mask and Mirror to explore our relationship
with beauty through story, activities, discussion, journaling, and
creative expression.
Led by Susan
Klein and Liz Warren
